npm-build

0.0.1 verified Sat Apr 25 auth: no javascript

npm-build is a CLI tool to generate npm build scripts. Version 0.0.1 is an early release with limited documentation. It appears to be a simple generator for common build tasks in npm projects. There are no known alternatives specifically for this niche, but similar functionality can be achieved using tools like 'npm-build-boilerplate' or manual scripting. The package is not actively maintained and has low adoption. It may not handle complex build configurations or integrate with modern tools like webpack or esbuild. Limited community support and no recent updates make it suitable only for basic needs.

Common errors

error Cannot find module 'npm-build' ↓

cause Package not installed or not in node_modules.

fix

Run 'npm install npm-build' in your project directory.

error generate is not a function ↓

cause Incorrect import syntax; package may not export generate as named export.

fix

Check the package exports: try default import or use 'require' to inspect.

Warnings

gotcha Package version 0.0.1 is extremely early and likely unstable or incomplete. ↓

fix Use a more mature alternative or wait for stable release.

breaking The generate() function may have different signatures in future versions. ↓

fix Pin to exact version and test thoroughly.

Install

npm install npm-build

yarn add npm-build

pnpm add npm-build

Imports

generate
wrong
```
const generate = require('npm-build')
```
correct
```
import { generate } from 'npm-build'
```
Package likely uses default export or no exports; import may not work as expected. Check actual usage.

npmBuild

wrong

var npmBuild = require('npm-build').default

correct

import npmBuild from 'npm-build'

Default import if package uses ESM default export.

ConfigBuilder
wrong
```
const { ConfigBuilder } = require('npm-build')
```
correct
```
import { ConfigBuilder } from 'npm-build'
```
If the package exports named classes, common mistake is using CJS require syntax.

Quickstart

Generates a set of npm build scripts for a React app using webpack.

import { generate } from 'npm-build';

const scripts = generate({
  type: 'react-app',
  buildTool: 'webpack',
  outputDir: 'dist'
});

console.log(scripts);
// Output example:
// {
//   "build": "webpack --mode production",
//   "dev": "webpack serve --mode development",
//   "lint": "eslint src/**/*.js"
// }
